Are the consumables universal or proprietary?

Common consumables and standard spare parts are available through our service channel and are not locked to proprietary formats. Quote the model and serial number when ordering so the correct items are supplied. Lead time for standard parts is usually short.

Can the Light Fastness Tester be customised?

Yes, common options include different ranges, voltages, accessories, interfaces and capacity or size configurations. We confirm feasibility, specifications and any delivery impact before order confirmation. Custom requirements are reviewed case by case.

Is installation and commissioning included?

Standard installation is straightforward and supported by the manual and start-up documentation. Our technical team can guide staff remotely through checks and validation. On-site commissioning is available as a quoted service.

What should be avoided when using the Light Fastness Tester?

Do not use the instrument outside its rated range or intended samples, skip calibration or ignore safety and maintenance instructions. Follow the operating manual and laboratory safety rules.
